Steadicam Volt Electronic Handheld Gimbal features:
Combine a 3-axis electronic gyroscopic stabilizer with a classic handheld platform and add a smartphone and GoPro clips, and you get the Steadicam Volt. With the combination of an inertia-based stabilization device and an electronic gyroscope with haptic feedback, the Volt is a platform that is easy to balance while providing natural camera motion akin to larger and heavier stabilization platforms. The arced balancing design folds down for easy transport.
